What Are Blueberry Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls?
Blueberry Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls are a simple pastry made with refrigerated crescent roll dough filled with sweetened cream cheese and blueberries. As they bake, the dough becomes golden and flaky while the filling turns creamy and delicious.
They offer all the flavors of a blueberry cream cheese Danish with a fraction of the effort.
Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough (8 rolls)
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar for dusting
Optional Add-Ins
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
How to Make Blueberry Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls
Step 1: Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat with nonstick spray.
Step 2: Make the Cream Cheese Filling
In a small bowl, mix together:
- Softened cream cheese
- Granulated sugar
Mix until smooth and creamy.
For extra flavor, stir in a splash of vanilla extract or a little lemon zest.
Step 3: Fill the Crescent Rolls
Separate the crescent roll dough into 8 triangles.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto each triangle, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle several blueberries over the cream cheese filling.
Step 4: Roll and Seal
Starting at the wide end, gently roll each triangle toward the pointed end.
Press the seams lightly to help seal the filling inside.
Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5: Bake
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Step 6: Finish and Serve
Allow the rolls to cool for about 5 minutes.
Dust generously with powdered sugar.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
